Today, Aon Hewitt released the results of its 2017 Best Employers in Canada Study, and CWB National Leasing made the list for the 10th consecutive year with an 81 per cent employee engagement rate.

The study measures four workplace effectiveness indicators: employee engagement, leadership, performance culture and employer brand. CWB National Leasing scored in the top 25 per cent of the study’s Canadian database, earning the company Platinum Best Employer status for small and medium employers.

“The main reason we’ve been taking part in this study for the past decade is to get up-to-date information on how our employees are feeling, what we can improve on and what we need to continue doing,” says Grant Shaw, Vice President, Strategy & Culture. “Building a culture where our employees are actively engaged every day, whether it’s through volunteer opportunities, professional development or fun activities at the office, will always be a top priority for us.”

These efforts don’t go unnoticed by employees.

“There’s something really different and refreshing about CWB National Leasing,” says Tia Hatch, Senior Business Analyst. “Have you ever heard of a financial institution orchestrating a NERF war between employees to help them blow off steam? Because that’s exactly what CWB National Leasing did for our project team for working extra hard lately.”

Tia adds: “It’s things like this, which happen pretty often around here, that make us excited to come to work.”
